Original Recipe Yield 8 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into thin strips
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
  • Minced fresh parsley

Directions

  1. Coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray; cook and stir chicken and onion over medium heat for 6-8 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Remove from the heat; add spinach and mix well. In a bowl, combine soup, milk, sour cream and seasonings; mix well. Stir 3/4 cup into chicken and spinach mixture. Divide evenly among tortillas. Roll up and place, seam side down, in a 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Pour the remaining soup mixture over enchiladas. Cover and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with cheese; return to the oven for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with parsley.
